Family Activities
Located in the heart of Budapest, the Hotel provides the perfect playground for children of all ages, as well as endless activities that families can enjoy together during their stay in the capital of Hungary.
Even before families arrive at the Hotel, our reservation team reaches out to collect all the details necessary to make the children's stay a truly memorable one. Upon arrival, young children are greeted with a treasure box full of goodies to choose from. The surprises continue once they enter their room, where amenities such as kid-size bathrobes and slippers, freshly baked chocolate cookies and hot popcorn are waiting. Children can also enjoy kid-friendly items from the refrigerated private bar.
Swimming in the infinity pool, trying to beat the parents to the lobby by taking the glorious marble staircase, or tasting unique acacia honey at Gresham Restaurant are just a few of the fun things kids can do at the Hotel.
Off-site Activities
Budapest is a must-see architectural and cultural gem that’s great for families.

Children are then invited to create their own instruments from all kinds of fun and unusual materials.
Museums

Palace of Miracles
